There are passports and there are passports. Not with every passport you can travel freely in every country for various reasons.

3 Star Budget Hotel in Budapest

Nov 6, 2014 0

Among the many hotels in Budapest you can find everything from dirt cheap hotels without a star up to the high class 5 star hotels. But what is the best value for business travelers and tourists? In my opinion it is in the category of 3 stars or max 4 stars depending on your wallet. If you are looking for clean, friendly and comfortable places to stay in the city you should start looking from 3 stars upwards. A very good value for the price is the Jagelló Business Hotel (www.jagellobusinesshotel.hu) on Buda side which offers all you need for a fair price. The hotel is situated in a very popular area in the 12th district, near popular business offices, the Budapest Congress Center, MOM Cultural Center and the Larus Event Center. This area is preferred for expats and rich people because of its location and the surrounding. Within few ...
